Are you located in Klang Valley? If I am not mistaken, there are a couple of BMC distributors in Sunway where they may be able to help you install the air filter.

Just make sure that the aftermarket air filters don't alter the position of your sensor. If it does alter, make sure that the installer knows how to position it because as you mentioned it, yes the after market air filter will change the shop and also how the air flows in.

Yup went to JFA&they say will custom made my airflow sensor,but I'm sceptical.... So I went to everco for 2nd opinion... A young Chinese chap wt spectical looks like Anak tauke,tell me not to do it....as it's too risky to touch d original airflow sensor&the advice me just get a k&n drop in filter is d best as it's sucking cool air compare to open pod air filter...

Why do they need to custom make the airflow sensor?? Everco? You spoke to Kingston? He is the boss there. Honestly what Everco told you is exactly the same as what a German BMW tuner told me as well.

The germans have designed and optimize their airflow. Why change that? Many of times when changing might actually make it worse. Someone actually dyno test it. It's because the air temp is hotter

I just bought a JETEX drop in filter from one of the vendors here (Torque Tuning). I did that because my tuner said that I needed it to achieve better power with the remap.

I hope you find what you want to achieve

I know Eurotuner carries Pipercross high flow filter. Perhaps Calvin can help you with that area?

I bought the Jetex filter from Torque Tuning for my E60 530i - wow, can really feel the difference once you step on the gas. And can really feel the torque esp in sports mode - damn addictive.

An alternative is to have a airflow enclosure for the open pod type of filters. For example those made by Gruppe M. But need to ensure that the airflow comes in properly. Like in the case of the E92 M3, the intake box gets air sources from 3 areas, the front grill, the hood through a hole and through the lower grill as well.
